Privacy Act of 1974 as Amended; Computer Matching Program (SSA/Railroad Retirement Board (RRB))-Match Number 1308, 36092-36093 [E7-12666]

Download as PDF jlentini on PROD1PC65 with NOTICES 36092 Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 126 / Monday, July 2, 2007 / Notices The proposed amendments to Part B.1 of the Error Trade Policy, (trades not brought to the attention of OOM within eight minutes or within five minutes for contingency trades), would permit restitution in the form of a reasonable cash payment, if the parties agreed to do so in order to compensate for any losses or costs directly incurred as a result of the error. Under the proposed rule change, the parties to the trade could also agree to retain the trade but make reasonable cash payment to compensate for any losses or costs caused by the error. The proposed rule change would also add new language to this Part clearly stating that in no event should participants take action to adjust the price or make cash payment without the knowledge of OOM. Part B.2 of the Error Trade Policy dealing with arbitration of disputes would be amended to require that a written notice of arbitration claim be given to the National Futures Association in addition to the OOM Help Desk. The proposed rule change would delete portions of Part B.2 requiring the owner of the account on the other side of an error to be a RTPH or subject to OOM’s jurisdiction to bring an arbitration claim and limiting the recovery under arbitration to the difference between the error trade price and the true market price for the relevant contract immediately before the error trade occurred. Part C of the current Error Trade Policy dealing with voluntary adjustment of trade price for those trades outside the ‘‘no bust’’ range reported within eight minutes would be deleted and the current Part D, Schedule of Administrative Fees, would be renumbered to be Part C. Since the proposed rule change would permit the OOM to direct the traders to make a price adjustment, this provision is no longer necessary. Therefore, the parties may no longer independently decide to keep and adjust trades that are reported within eight minutes of when the trade occurred or within five minutes of when the trade was questioned for contingency trades and outside of the ‘‘no bust’’ range. This adjustment must be made by the Exchange. The Schedule of Administrative fees would be amended to make administrative fees permissive rather than mandatory. Under the proposed rule change, if OneChicago adopts an administration fee schedule, the party responsible for the Questioned Trade would be required to pay a fee in accordance with the fee schedule. The proposed rule change would also add two new provisions, Part D, which would permit the Exchange to bust any VerDate Aug<31>2005 22:57 Jun 29, 2007 Jkt 211001 trades affected by a system failure or partial failure whether or not the trades occurred within the ‘‘no bust’’ range and Part E, which would permit the Exchange to bust or adjust any trades that are in violation of OneChicago rules. 2. Statutory Basis The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is consistent with Section 6(b) of the Act 4 in general and Section 6(b)(5) of the Act 5 in particular in that it is designed to prevent fraudulent and manipulative acts and practices, to promote just and equitable principles of trade, and, in general, to protect investors and the public interest. B. Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement on Burden on Competition OneChicago does not believe that the proposed rule change will impose any burden on competition that is not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. C. Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement on Comments on the Proposed Rule Change Received From Members, Participants, or Others No written comments were solicited or received with respect to the proposed rule change. III. Date of Effectiveness of the Proposed Rule Change and Timing for Commission Action The foregoing proposed rule change has become effective pursuant to Section 19(b)(7) of the Act.6 Within 60 days of the date of effectiveness of the proposed rule change, the Commission, after consultation with the CFTC, may summarily abrogate the proposed rule change and require that the proposed rule change be refiled in accordance with the provisions of Section 19(b)(1) of the Act.7 IV.
